    --> RV4-List message posted by: rv4joe@sofnet.com Does anyone have contact info for Vetterman? Thanks, Joe -----Original Message----- From: rob ray <smokyray@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: RV4-List: Exhaust pipes. --> RV4-List message posted by: rob ray Gene, Go with the Vetterman straight 4 pipe system on the RV4. It's painless, efficient and allows the greatest HP from some comparisons I did early on. It has served me well with no cracks or problems in 1500 hours...

Fuel consumption obviously is a big concern now, and noise levels near a small community could develop into a problem...Specifically, do "straights" enable more power from the engine, and less fuel consumption?..Seems I read somewhere that "tuned" exhausts were the way to go...What is the advantage and disadvantage of each?..The engine is a Lycoming 0-320 E2A, modified to 160 HP..........Thanks..........CHEERS!!!!..........Gene Smith.
